Chapter 493
I am Rulurradi. I am a senior civilian of the third grade of Josbrenner who is a student at the Aristocracy.
Today we are going to participate in a ritual where we are collaborating with Dunkel Ferger and Ehrenfest. I was once again informed by Muriela, an apprentice of Ehrenfest’s civilian apprentice, and reviewed the precautions of the rituals that I copied.
“The cleansing is over, and recovery drugs are prepared. And I prayed for some prayer.”
“Ruleradi has not yet received the ritual to get the blessing? Isn’t it almost the same as the chanting at that ritual? Is Ehrenfest passed once by a lower noble?”
19459002]
姉 Your sister became amazed, but remembering all the names of the gods is very difficult. Do not compare with Ehrenfest students who all passed in one shot. All third-year students at Ehrenfest have passed the first day of their classroom study from the beginning. The lord candidate, Rosemine, who leads them, passes the fastest in both practical skills, so it is difficult to compare.
“I really don’t get obscene information …”
“Isn’t your sister getting the same information as Rosemine?”
The year that Rosemine entered was able to obtain only boasting information that could be summarized in a single statement, “Because it is a saint of Ehrenfest,” led by a fellow of Rosemine like Hartmut, and when he was in second grade, Mr. Clarissa of Dunkelferger It was my sister who was driven away by “I’m the escort partner of Hartmut.”
“Unlike my sister, I knew from Haltomut and Philine that I loved Rosemine and planned to return to Ehrenfest, and borrowed books from Villefried and Hannerole. I also knew that I was making a connection with the superior territory, and now I am getting along with Muriera. “
Ehrenfest bought a lot of stories from various places, “I want to ask what kind of story Rosemine wants to buy even a little, but it is a senior aristocrat who is in charge. “I was asked by a junior aristocrat of Josbrenner and I went to the library. So I was able to get information from Haltomut and Philine.
…… Rosmine likes the love story. I didn’t understand the word “Uriageteki”.
I thought that I would surely agree with Rosemine. I also love love stories.
Murinea, who recently joined Rosemine, was introduced by Philine. Muriera loves love stories, and when they start talking together, it becomes a story of love stories rather than collecting information from various places.
… I would like to get along with Rosemine soon and read the love story of Ehrenfest.
It is fun to ask what kind of story Mr. Muriera had, but I still want to read it myself.
…… In the love story of the new Aristocracy, there is a wonderful scene where the dark god spreads his sleeves and covers the Goddess of Light in the Toya where the goddess of time mischiefs. Ah, when will it be readable?
“I don’t say anything fluffy about wanting to marry Ehrenfest to read a new book, but see a little more reality. Even if I want to marry the Ehrenfest, I can’t get married easily because the situation is different from a few years ago. “
“If you marry an Ehrenfest mid-class noble …”
“Fathers and mothers only know when Ehrenfest wandered low, wouldn’t they be allowed to marry an Ehrenfest mid-class nobleman? Let ’s do it ”
Sister speaks to another senior civilian apprentice Lustra One. Josbrenner will participate in the joint research with me, my sister and Lustraone.
Ehrenfest has risen rapidly in the middle of the territory that has been hanging around the bottom, and has survived political change in neutrality. Therefore, the magical power seems to be preserved a lot. From the fact that the production volume of the territory has risen and is stable, you can see that it has abundant magic power to fill the land.
And in the past five or six years, the results of the Aristocratic House have improved. At first, only the lower grades of classroom lectures went up so much that he was ridiculed that he was desperate to maintain his ranking. It seems to be a story when Yosbrenner was in a higher ranking before my admission.
However, students who improved their grades even in practical skills began to appear, and students who finished practical skills with a magical amount that could not be considered a middle territory began to appear. This continues even now.
It is rumored that now that more than half of the students in the territory have gone up, they may have come up with a good method for compressing magic power.
After Rosemine was enrolled, the first day of the class was all passed, attracting people’s attention and showing off many new things. However, new things sent from small and medium territories are not always popular. If you don’t see and spread in the eyes of the great territory, you will end up with something unusual.
At the tea party in the small and medium territories, I felt sorry for Rosemine, who returned to Ehrenfest after being out of physical condition during the social season. Many people were smiling.
At the end of the first year, Ehrenfest sponsored an all-region tea party where Prince Anastazius gave Egrantine a hair ornament, and Egrantine and Rosemine were teased individually. How small and medium-sized territories were surprised and frightened by the fact that they had exchanged things that glossed their hair after meeting.
…… Since my sister attended as a representative, I don’t know, but it seems that it was a tough tea party, including the fact that Rosemine fell down and ended in the middle.
Then, if you rush to get information, you may not have an Ehrenfest student if you refrain from fighting the territory, but Rosemine will be absent if you are willing to collect it in the territory. The location of Ehrenfest, which should have been quiet in the past year, ended up with the result that the territory’s aubes frequently went in and out, and the small and medium territories were not close to the fence.
Rose Mine passed away on the first day even in the second year and disappeared from the lecture, and during the social season, Charlotte was fully supported and Rose Mine did not show up at all .
Villefried and Charlotte were dealing with small and medium territories in the territorial competition, and Rosemine was busy with the guardian Fernando and Dunkel Ferger. The award ceremony was absent and the graduation ceremony was held in the middle. It ’s a person who does n’t show up at all, even though it ’s very conspicuous and looks like it ’s just finished the baptismal ceremony.
Such Rosemine finally came to the Aristocracy in the social season. The first opportunity to talk to Rosemine was coming.
Listening to the book’s topic with a pleasant smile and embarrassing words about his own love story, Rosemine, but when it comes to Aub ’s bad rumors, he became a sad face.
According to rumors obtained at the lord’s meeting, it was impossible to stay at the Aristocratic House because Aub was significantly different from Miko and pushed into the temple. It will be very hot.
Although Rosemine is denied, it is a well-known fact that Wilfried and Charlotte, who are the children of Aub, have not returned to Ehrenfest during the social season. If they are really treated the same way, aren’t they all going back?
“Hey, Rosemine. I want to talk about joint research rather than the temple. How are you studying with the Great Territory?”
Mr. Romène, a candidate for the lord of Inmelding, has made an unrequited request to participate in a joint study with Dunkelfelger, blocking Rosemine from talking about the rituals at the temple.
In the last year’s territorial competition, Immelding’s senior aristocrat attacked Rosemine and received a compliment. Mr. Murrenroye said at the previous tea party that “nobody agrees with the damage that Immelding suffered from Rosemine”, but how thick it is.
Neither Rosemine is responsible for the great damage from Turnis Bephalen or for lowering the ranks of senior aristocrats. When the surroundings tried to stop Mullenroy, Mr. Rosemine, who had been thinking, raised his face and smiled.
“In the process of joint research with Dunkel Felger, there is a thing that shows the Ehrenfest ritual. If you get Dunker Felger’s permission, I’ll talk about it, but would you like to participate?”
“Well, would you like to be with me?”
…… It ’s too sweet, Rosemine.
I’m amazed, but I’ll be gathering around me. If Immelding was allowed to participate, I understood the silent claim that his territory was better, and I rushed into the war.
“Your sister, you might be able to participate in a joint study with Dunkel Ferger and Ehrenfest!”
“I did it well, Rurradi”
As Mr. Rosemine said with a smile, Yosbrenner immediately applied to Dunkel Ferger for participation in joint research.
“If so, it’s a Ditter!”
I don’t know what kind of relationship there is between collaborative research and Ditter, but I can’t decide to do Ditter with Dunkel Ferger. As a result of Aub’s decision, there was a word to participate in collaborative research by doing a ditter, and I asked a knight apprentice to do the ditter.
“Rulurradi-sama, Dunkel Ferger wanted a treasure stealer”
“… Treasure theft is an old Ditter, isn’t it?”
Now, I’m going to play with a Ditter who doesn’t even practice with practical skills. I needed a lot of recovery medicine. It was a big miscalculation for Jösbrenner because the Ditter competing for speed did not need so much recovery and magic.
“Now the collection area has become very thin and cannot produce good materials.”
Material is not good, and a lot of magic is required to make a recovery medicine. The apprentice apprentices made a total, but I can’t let the knight apprentice pay the cost of the recovery medicine. It is the damage outside the lecture that was given by Aube’s order.
I received approval from Aub and raised the necessary cost for recovery medicine from the cost of the Aristocratic House.
However, thanks to the hard work of the knight apprentices, we received three wooden cards from Dunkel Ferger that allowed us to participate. It seems to be a permit that you must bring. It was said that if I took it to the Ehrenfest’s apprentice apprenticeship, I could get some notes on participation, and I contacted Muriela.
“Eh? Is recovery medicine needed to participate in joint research?”
“Yeah. The ritual performed by Rosemine requires magical power, so I think it would be troublesome if you don’t have it.”
I was very worried about Muriela’s words. It was hard to say that I would not participate in the ritual even though I was ordered by Abu and the knight apprentices worked hard. However, if you use more magic, you want to avoid situations where you need recovery drugs.
…… Maybe it was smarter to decline when applying for Ditter like Immelding.
Inmelding, who suffered the most damage from Tarnis Bephalen in last year’s assault, had few apprentices to the middle territory, so he was unable to participate in Ditter and heard that he declined .
“Josbrenner has no surplus like Ehrenfest. Is it worth mentioning in collaborative research until you join a ritual that uses more magic?”
Muriela leaned slightly in my words.
“I don’t know about the power of other territories … but I think Rosemine’s ritual is worth seeing. What does it mean to pray to the gods and be loved by them?” I think you understand it well. ”
I decided to take part in the joint research, taking the breath that Muriela’s green eyes, usually shining in love stories, were unexpectedly serious.
More than two hundred people gathered in the auditorium. I was surprised by the large number of people and I was very worried that there were only three cloaks of the same cream color as me, and I pulled the cloak of my sister lightly.
“Your sister, will so many people participate in the study?”
“Most of them seem to be lord candidates, so there will be many aides attached to them. I don’t think there are so many participants.”
The lord candidate of Yosbrenner was not graduated when I entered the school, so unlike my sister who is a mentor of the graduated lord candidate, I always say that the lord candidate will act with my aides. The consciousness is very thin.
…… When you work in the castle, you rarely get involved with lord candidates.
“That’s Fairzile, isn’t that the Central Knights?”
Rustraone showed the back of the auditorium, in front of the door that leads to the back of the door when he got the stap. As Rustraone said, for some reason there is a line of central knights in black cloaks. Some of them were dressed up as if they were fighting. Healed the wound with a recovery drug, but it seems that he couldn’t hide the bruise on his clothes.
“What happened?”
“Wouldn’t I know that Rulurradie who brought me this collaborative story doesn’t know?”
There was tension in her sister’s face. I can’t predict what will happen in the joint research between Dunkelferger and Ehrenfest. If you think about it, it is strange to gather people in the auditorium for joint research.
“The ritual is behind the door and in the back. Participants must present a permit. If you do not have a permit, you cannot enter there.
The students of Ehrenfest and Dunkelferger are calling out so loudly. I found the figures of Philine and Muriera.
The first time I went was Klassenburg. Since Krasenburg currently has no lord candidates, it seems that senior apprentice apprentices are available. I saw five people lined up. For some reason it was strange that everyone stopped their feet just before entering the back.
The second-ranked Dunkel Felger is a collaborative researcher, so it seems that he is already inside. Third place Drevancher follows Klassenburg.
“Why can’t I enter !? I am Ortovin’s escort knight!”
“If you don’t have a permit, you can’t enter it. That’s no exception for escort knights.”
“If that is allowed …”
As soon as the escort knight exposed his anger, the Central Knights moved quickly.
“Do not enter without a permit. Go down”
is stared with a sharp eye with insurance, is so said in sullen low voice, escort knight will continue down slowly clenching tightly teeth. I didn’t think I wouldn’t be able to enter my aide without a permit.
“What are Dunkelferger and Ehrenfest thinking about pulling the escort knights apart?”
I get tight and hold my permit tightly.
At that time, one student who should have gone to the other side of the door was returned. He is a student of Ahrensbach because he is a mauve cloak. The knight apprentices of Ehrenfest and Dunkelfellger have been evicted, “If you can’t get into the ritual, you can’t participate in the ritual unless you have an escort knight.”
“No, I’m a bad guy …! Rosemine is! Rosemine’s conspiracy!”
“Let’s hear more about the story”
knight apprentices of Ehrenfest and Dunkelferger were handed over to the Central Knights, and the girl students who pulled their faces left the auditorium.
“What’s going on inside?”
Rustraone shook his head quietly in my words.
“I don’t know. But what I can guess from what she said is that there is something to discern a dangerous person that is malicious”
“There will be something to ensure safety without an escort knight … If there is no hostility or harm, there should be no problem. Klassenburg and Drevancher are out
The older sister said in a loud voice and glanced at the people in the nearby small territories. At the tea party, there are people who praised Ehrenfest and spoke a lot of bad rumors.
…… I complained that I needed a lot of recovery medicine, but this is not hostile! ?
While throbbing, I wait for my turn. Aside from two of the five Arensbach ’s civilian apprentices who were expelled, they entered one by one. After all, while stopping the movement just before entering.
“What’s over there? Everyone will stop moving?”
The door is open, but the innermost part is covered with a complex-colored magical power film so that the back cannot be seen. The sister who entered in front of me stopped moving in the same way.
“Next person”
Talked to Mr. Linene, I grabbed the wooden bill in front of my chest and proceeded. The central knights standing on the left and right sides of the door are very scared, but be careful not to crawl as much as possible.
As soon as I tried to pass through the membrane, I saw the sight in the back and I stopped my feet like everyone else.
…… What do you mean? ? I have not heard that there are so many royalty!
As soon as I entered, I saw the royals lined up in yellow, transparent hemispherical objects. In the foreground is Rosemine, wearing a temple chief costume.
When I stopped my motion to the extent that I thought my heart would stop, I heard a voice saying “Please give me a permit”. I am still stunned and give the permit to Clarissa of Dunkelferger.
“This is a shield from Szeria, and is a ritual that prevents anyone inside it from putting in hostility or harm. The ritual is done without the escort knight, so let’s sort it out like this. Please go inside and say hello. ”
Rosemine said with a smile and stepped aside. From the left, Egrantine, Prince Anastazius, and Traokkuvar, Adolfine, Sigiswald, and Naerach are lined up.
I never imagined that I, a senior nobleman in the middle territory, would go directly to the royal family. Mr. Traokvar does not have a Glutlis Height, so if he is not suitable for Zent, he is often scolded in the defeated territory, but is dignified as a royal family. I endured my feet trembling and slowly moved to me.
“Please allow me to pray for blessings in the rare encounter of the strict selection of Evilive, the god of life”
“Forgive”
The voice of the king resonated more gently than expected, and I gave a blessing and greeted with a little comfort.
“My name is Ryuladi from Jossbrenner. I am honored to have met you at Zent Traokvar.”
“Thank you for your cooperation today, Rurruday”
I never thought that I would be thankful for being called by the king. A senior aristocrat like me was too honored to speak, and if I wasn’t encouraged by Rosemine, I might have been inspiring.
“Lulurradi, Hartmut will guide you”
When I got up and got up, there was Mr. Hartmut wearing a blue priest’s clothes. Why do the aristocrats who graduate from the aristocracy wear blue priests? As soon as I entered, I thought that I managed to overcome the shock that the royal family lined up in a row, I feel dizzy with the new shock.
“Hartmut, that costume …”
“I am the priest who supports the temple chief Rosemine. And not just me. Villefried and Charlotte are also special. Today is special, but Rosemaine ’s dedication It is a ritual that only a priest wearing a blue and a priestess can enter. ”
While looking proudly at the temple costumes that are enshrined by everyone, Haltomuth smiled at the same level as last year. It ’s the same smile as when I talked about the beauty of Rosemine. I was happily thinking of going to the temple, but I can’t be an aristocrat. I shook my head and shaken away the idea.
“Please wait here”
Hartmut was guided next to his sister with a red rug. It is arranged in such a way that the center is spread in a circle and the closer to the center is the upper territory and the outer territory is the lower territory. Considering that it is not a perfect circle but a part of it opened straight, the royal who finished the greeting may move to the center.
“Everyone in Ehrenfest ’s cadets was in and out of the temple.”
Hartomat-san walked away to guide Rustraone who came in, and her sister said in a small voice.
I looked around the room again and found that Villefried and Charlotte were wearing blue costumes, as Harutmut said. If you look at the costumes you are wearing, you can immediately tell whether you are hurrying or borrowing for today. The costumes of the two people in the process of growing up were well received, and they were not completely new, and they were found to have passed through their sleeves several times.
“In spite of the rumor that there is a disparity in treatment with Miko, it seems undoubtedly the lord candidate is doing a ritual at Ehrenfest.”
The moment when I sang, the wind suddenly blew. If I looked up to see what happened, there seemed to be a person who was struck by a shield of Szeria to protect the royal family, and I can see that he was taken out by the knight apprentices of Ehrenfest and Dunkelferger.
“I have no hostility!”
“Is it hostility to me, not the royal family? However, please refrain from this ritual. If you are hostile or intimidating in a ritual place without an escort knight, you are in trouble.”
Rosemine stayed away from the student being taken out while saying so.
The person being taken out is hostile to either Rosemine or the royal family.それが本当なのか確認する術もないように思えるのですけれど、何故確信が持てるのでしょうか。
「大丈夫でしょうか？ 本当でなければ大変ですよね？ 敵意があるかもしれない、と王族に注視されるわけですから」
「けれど、明確に弾かれています。上位領地ではアーレンスバッハの二人だけでしたが、二人はローゼマイン様に明確に敵意があったことを本人が述べていました。けれど、先程の彼は政変に負けた領地の者です。これから先は何人も弾かれる可能性がございます」
ルストラオネの言葉通り、その後に入って来た者は何人も弾かれました。お茶会で政変に負けたことで順位が下がったり、領地が荒れたりしたことに対する不満を漏らしていた領地に偏っていたことから、王族に対する敵意があったのだと思います。
……ローゼマイン様は「わたくしに対する敵意だと存じますけれど」とおっしゃいますけれど、そうでないことは王族の方々がよくご存じでしょう。
何人かが追い出され、長い時間をかけた全員の入室が終わりました。壁際に立っていたダンケルフェルガーの領主候補生の二人を残し、エーレンフェストとダンケルフェルガーの騎士見習い達が退室して行きます。そして、文官見習い達はぴったりと扉が閉ざし、わたくし達と同じように位置につきました。
「では、中央へお進みくださいませ」
ローゼマイン様のお言葉で王族が順番に歩いて真ん中の空いているところへ歩きます。ローゼマイン様は王族が移動するのを待って、シュツェーリアの盾を消しました。
「では、これから奉納式を行います」
ヴィルフリート様から奉納式の説明があり、これから行う儀式が全員から魔力を集めて王族に献上する儀式であることを初めて知りました。
……そんな儀式のどこが共同研究なのですか！ ? どの領地も魔力不足だというのに、わたくし、騙されてしまったのではありませんか！ ?
わたくしの心の声は周囲の皆と同じだったようです。バッと顔を上げた皆を見回しながらシャルロッテ様が口を開きます。
「この共同研究はダンケルフェルガーやエーレンフェストの学生が神々の御加護を複数賜ったことから始まりました。神々に祈りを捧げる儀式を定期的に行っているという共通点から、祈りや儀式が大事なのではないかと仮説が立ったのです」
文句を言いかけた皆が口を閉ざしました。エーレンフェストの三年生に複数の加護を得た者がいることは知っていましたが、儀式との関係は知りませんでした。実際に下級貴族の一人は適性ではない属性から加護を得て、ある中級貴族は全属性になったというのです。
「エーレンフェストの神殿で神事を行っているお兄様とお姉様はそれぞれ十二と二十一の御加護を賜りました」
「私の体感ですが、これまでの七割ほどの魔力で調合などができるようになりました。魔力不足の時世では重要な研究になると思っています」
実際に十二の加護を得たヴィルフリート様の言葉には力がありました。調合をするにも魔力の消費が少なくて済むのならば、それは魔力が増えたのと同じではありませんか。
壁際に立ったままのダンケルフェルガーのレスティラウト様も口を開きました。
「参加するにあたってディッターの儀式を行ったダンケルフェルガーが神々の祝福を得た光景を見た者は多かろう。儀式によって力や速さが大きく変化することが確認された。これはこの研究の成果である」
ダンケルフェルガーが恐ろしいほどにディッターが強かったのは儀式による神々の祝福もあったようです。
目を瞬いていると、ハルトムート様が手に鈴のような物を持って中央にゆっくりと進み始めました。歩みに合わせて朗々とした声が部屋の中に響きます。
「初代王は神殿長でした。ツェントが、そして、アウブが神殿長として神々に祈りを捧げることが当然だった時代があったのです。今回の儀式に参加することで神々の力を身近に感じ、神殿の在り様を見直したり、神々の御加護を得る者が少しでも増えたりすることをローゼマイン様はお望みです」
わたくしは思わずローゼマイン様のお姿を探しました。シュツェーリアの盾を消したローゼマイン様は扉の前で静かに佇んでいます。自分達だけで独占するのではなく、皆が神々の加護を得られるように、という心映えがとても美しく思えました。ハルトムート様が「エーレンフェストの聖女」だと自慢するお気持ちが少しわかります。
「奉納式を行います。その場に跪き、赤い敷物に手を付けてください。そして、神殿長であるローゼマイン様のお祈りを復唱してください」
ハルトムート様の指示に従って、思い思いに座っていた皆が跪く体勢を取り、床に手を付けました。王族も同じ体勢を取っています。ヴィルフリート様とシャルロッテ様が中央から端の方へ移動して跪くのが見えました。
立っているのが壁際のダンケルフェルガーの領主候補生二人と中央のハルトムート様、そして、扉の前のローゼマイン様だけになったところで、シャン！ と大きく鈴の音が鳴りました。
「神殿長、入場！」
